does any one know a good renedy for motion sickness???

I think there are few medicines for motion sickness, one I know is - 'Avomine', which is required to be taken half an hour before the start of journey. I also suffer motion sickness, specially, while travelling in hilly areas, therefore, I take this medicine, before half an hour of the start of the journey and it remains effective from 4-5 hours and makes me feel comfortable. Besides, when you start travelling, please do not consume heavey, greasy or oily food or the food which takes time to digest. You have can some light food and can keep cardamom and clove in the side of your mouth to nausea feelings. If you are unable to get cardmom or clove pieces, then you can keeap a good quality toffee in your mouth.

I just take dramamine myself. It's available over the counter here in the US. I can't read in the car without it.

I know how it feels as so many of my family members have this sickness.Infact we have been experimenting on various thing.Do you throw up when you feel sick? If you tend to throw up there is a wrist band which can be worn.It has buttons which presses the acupressure points and it helps.You do not throw up.If it just that your ears get blocked while travelling try chewing a bubble gum this helps.

You have already mentioned sweet ginger riya, but if you can styomach it, try to eat fresh ginger 30 minutes or so before travelling as I have seen actual experiments on this theory show positive results. Acupressure bracelets that put pressure on the inner wrist are supposed to be of benefit also and I see someone has mentioned this approach as well. Thankfully I do not suffer from motion sickness on anything but boats and I rarely go on one these days.

They say that the brain is the most powerful organ, so whenever I feel like dizzy or throwing up, I try talking to my brains and ask the one who control balance not to be affected. I also try to think that if ever I throw up I look wasted and ugly (this stops me from throwing up).

ok this is what my Dr. had me do. you lay down flat on your back. move your head to one side hold for the count of ten the the other and then back to front. If your sitting samething and it does help. It brings your balance back. It works more for my son as he has the same problem. My Mom as well, has it she just stayed out of the back seat or they had to pull over so she could get sick. And they never made her ride in the back again. I bought a van and that seems better as well. I don't know why. Have a great day

the odd time I had morning sickness I just went to the pharmacy and got gravel, I have never tried home remedies, I am sorry.

I love travelling even if i experience motion sickness while on a bus or plane... so i take bonamine 1 hour before riding the vehicle... but if that is not available... i just keep myself occupied... or look far ahead... this usually works for me...

I remember as a child I would always get motion sickness. So whenever we would go in the car on a trip I would not eat before we left. Otherwise I always had kleenex and plastic bags ready to go. My mother would always give me this motion sickness medicine called Dramamine. That worked ok. But the best thing that worked for me was to sit in the front seat and keep the window rolled down just a bit so I would get fresh air in my face. To this day I cannot sit in the back seat of a car or I will more than likely throw up all over the place! It seems that two of my four children have inherited motion sickness from me. I just keep towels and bags in the car, and a can of Lysol spray (just in case). I personally don't have this problem on airplanes, but I have never been on a cruise ship so I don't know if I will get seasick or not. I have been on power boats before and never felt sick on them, so who knows? Good luck with finding a remedy for motion sickness. I think a lot of times if you try to concentrate on not getting sick, and make sure that you are getting fresh air that that helps a great deal. Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!

My son has always had this problem and that is the reason we are hardly able to go for holidays far away because he just refuses to some. I avoid giving him oily food on the day of the journey. And I have found that this does help a lot.

I am not really sure if this would help, but rolling down the window might help a bit.

hmm, they actually do sell pills to counter motion sickness at the pharmacy counters. my dad bought a box some years back because we were taking the plane and apparently it was good. if you're taking a boat, my advice is dont' eat. i seldom have motion sickness or i should say my balance level is quite good. but once i started to dine, i couldn't stop retching especially when the boat was stationary. i'm not sure about those mega big cruise ships but the one i was on was a medium size ship.

I don't like to take dramamine as I feel and act like a zombie hours after I take it. I've found that anything ginger helps me out. Ginger ale, ginger snaps, ginger cookies...

Filipino old folks' remedy to (prevent) nausea and motion sickness is Ginger. We boil the ginger with water, put sugar in it for taste, and drink it. We have a ginger "tea" called "Salabat". In Panay Island and other parts of Western Visayas, salabat is drunk before travel, especially if the trip is in the early morning. Salabat provides other benefits. It prevents your voice from getting hoarse. Many Filipino singers take salabat to keep their voice sweet. You may try this Filipino old folks' remedy.

they tell me there's some kind of accupressure thing you can put on your wrist, I, for one, just stay out of back seats....

Hi there riyasam I am sorry to hear that you suffer from such a problem!! My children have suffered terribly as to what can only be described as cronic travel sickness. I have not been able to get out of the town I live in before one of my kids have thrown up! They are not so bad now and I put it down to sucking hard boiled sweets. It seems to keep their saliva going and keeps or the passages open and swear that this helps. They used to take tablets for it which worked but as they are in the car more often these days I hate to these to them and now don't! Eating plenty of carbs before a journey seems to help too! Hope that is some help to you.
